Trigger build via URL gives me no crumb included in request error

Question

I\'ve been trying to trigger a build via the Jenkins API so far with no success. I configured a job on \'Trigger builds remotely\' and set a token, \'abc\'.

Then in post

Answer 1

Pass in POST headers, "Jenkins-Crumb:5740ac1b614ca59f5dd5ef151b2895b3".

Your Crumb can be obtained from the URL http://jenkins:8080/crumbIssuer/api/xml

In the POST body, use the appropriate Jenkins XML API request.

Here is my Postman images with parameters:

Answer 2

This worked for me:

Obtain crumb

$ wget -q --auth-no-challenge --user yourUserName --password yourPassword--output-document - 'http://myJenkins:8080/crumbIssuer/api/xml?xpath=concat(//crumbRequestField,":",//crumb)'

Now run the Jenkins job

$ curl -I -X POST http://yourUserName:yourPassword@myJenkins:8080/job/JOBName/build -H "Jenkins-Crumb:44e7038af70da95a47403c3bed5q10f8"
